lyrics

"DARKNESS DUCKING LIGHT" by David & Brent Guilbault

Ooh, la la, there’s a coup d'etat, right here in my home.
As I watch they’re taking stock, of ev’rything I own.
I don’t know who to give to anymore.
Ev’rything I own is moving out the door.

All across South America, they’re chopping down the trees.
All across North America, they’ve been chopping down me.
I don’t know what I should worry about,
All the forests coming down, or me being down and out.

It’s a selfish world,
And it always twirls for some
Clever ones.

He woulda, shoulda, coulda done it, if he only knew
What would happen if he did, if he saw it through?
Convictions and contradictions, competing for the right
To control the mighty flow, of darkness ducking light.

Who’s standing up for you?
Who’s holding down the fort?
Who’d give their life to play their part, in your heart?

What is your story?
What is your song?
In the telling can you tell what’s right from wrong?

Ooh, la la, there’s a coup d'etat, right here in my home.
As I watch they’re taking stock, of ev’rything I own.
I don’t know who to give to anymore.
Ev’rything I am is moving out that door.
